The invention relates to a system (1) for blocking a vehicle (C) in front of a loading dock, the system comprising a guide rail (2), a carriage (3, 30) mounted so as to be movable on the rail, a first device (4) for driving the carriage on the rail, a wedge (5) mounted so as to be movable on the carriage, and a second device (6) for driving the wedge between a blocking position and a withdrawn position, characterised in that the guide rail comprises a plurality of locking members (22a) arranged along the rail and a movable immobilisation device (8, 80) carried by the carriage and capable of assuming a locked configuration, in which it engages with at least one of the locking members, and an unlocked configuration, the immobilisation device being arranged to be driven by the wedge in order to adopt said locked configuration.
The invention relates to a dockboard (2) of a transshipment dock (100), comprising: a movable lip (3) that is able to take up a deployed position in which it is intended to rest on the floor (105) of a docked trailer (106) and a retracted position; a device (5) for detecting the distance of the trailer from the movable lip; the detection device being mounted on the movable lip and being deigned to emit a warning instruction when the detected distance is greater than a given threshold.
The invention relates to a device for blocking a vehicle in front of a loading dock in a docking path, said device comprising a frame (10), a blocking module (12) provided with manoeuvring means (14) along the frame, characterized in that said blocking module (12) comprises a chassis (12-0) in translation, supporting a blocking head (16) and a detection means (18).
The subject of the invention is a device for immobilising a vehicle such as a trailer in front of a loading platform, in a direction F, comprising a fixed structure (12) comprising a rail fixed to the ground, and a mobile structure (14) comprising a carriage (24) mobile in translation along said rail, means (16) of manoeuvring said carriage relative to said rail, mechanical means (48) of detecting the movements of said carriage, comprising a pivoting arm (54) with a sensor (56) and means (50) for immobilising at least one rear wheel R of said vehicle. The invention also covers the method for operating the device.
The manual securing device comprises a frame (1) supporting a guide rail (2), upon which is slidably mounted a support head (3) receiving a chock (4) that may occupy a retracted position and a locked position located away from the retracted position. This device is characterised in that the rail (2) has a series of holes (20), said head has a guide sheath (30) slidably engaged on the guide rail (2), said sheath (30) has at least one radial through-hole (31) arranged to line up axially with one of the holes (20) of the guide rail (2) by sliding the head (3), and the head (3) has at least one locking pin (32) arranged to be engaged in the alignment of the hole (20, 31) formed, so that it can be translationally immobilised along the guide rail (2).
The invention relates to a device for chocking a freight transport vehicle along a dock, which includes a horizontal mounting (1) provided to be anchored in the ground opposite a loading dock, a horizontal plate (2) slidably mounted on the horizontal mounting (1), a rear chock block (3) forming an abutment for the last rear wheel axle of the vehicle to be chocked along the dock, said rear chock block being rigidly connected to said plate, a front mobile pushing chock block (4) carried by the horizontal plate (2) and spaced apart from the rear chock block (3), said plate (2) being actuated so as to slide along the mounting (1), between an anterior rest position and a posterior position for chocking the vehicle along the dock, by a driving assembly (5) also capable of chocking the plate in the anterior rest position and in the dock-chocked position and to maintain same in said positions, wherein the front pushing chock block may assume a recessed position in which said chock block is spaced apart from the path of the vehicle rear wheels, and an active position in which said chock block is arranged opposite one of the rotationally symmetrical surfaces of one of the rear wheels of the vehicle and in which said chock block presses against said rotationally symmetrical surface due to the movement of the plate (2) into the chocking position thereof.
The closure device (1) for an opening (2) in a building comprises a guide structure (3) provided with one pair of vertical guide rails (30) and an apron (4) in the form of a flexible curtain capable of being moved within the guide structure (3) between an opening-not-obstructed position and a closed position by the action of a motorized drive means (5) with traction cables (54). This device is noteworthy in that: the lower part (40) of the apron (4) is formed by a rigid obstruction wall to which the traction cables (54) are connected; the upper part (45) of the apron (4) is formed by at least one flexible obstruction wall and is connected by its horizontal bottom edge to the obstruction wall (40) and by its horizontal top edge to the lintel of the opening (2); and in the opening-not-obstructed position the apron is folded on itself in the upper part of the guide rails, this upper part being horizontal or inclined with respect to the horizontal.
